Chapter 31 – Chapter 3 – Friends.

“Now, now. Didn’t I tell you. Let’s do everything we can.”

“No, no matter how much, it’s only in the hair…”

“There are so many women in the world who risk their lives to take care of their hair. Don’t ignore it.”

With a comb and a strange medicine in his hand, he finally sat me down in a chair.

“How much do you usually tidy up your hair?”

“..At all.”

“It’s in really good condition for something like that. Is this also an effect of martial arts? I’m envious.”

Except for some martial arts, most martial arts have the effect of removing wastes from the body and maintaining the optimal state of the body after reaching a certain level.

There are rumors that some good family members learn even third-rate martial arts for that purpose, but I don’t know if it actually worked.

“But what about the drug?”

“It’s a kind of oil that makes your hair better… I’m not sure if it’ll work because it’s in a lot better condition than I thought.”

“Then just-“

“Still, it has a cosmetic effect in itself, so that alone would be a reason.”

– Jjuuk

I heard the sound of liquid behind my back.

-Sueug

The medicated comb started brushing through my hair.

I opened my mouth to him who was humming his song before I knew it because of a subtle sensation I had never felt in my life.

“..Are you really that kind to women?”

“Why do you ask that?”

“..Answer the question.”

This man was too ignorant of the existence of reason.

Ordinary men wouldn’t openly engage in physical contact like yesterday’s offensive of gifts and compliments, but whether it’s a high-level target or really naive, they don’t hesitate too much.

– Pounding

‘Ha..’

To the point where I misunderstood it for no reason.

However, I don’t feel any impure intentions to say anything about it, so I can’t reject it or criticize it out loud.

I’d rather just be kind to all people or all women, I could think of him as a nice young man, but…

“It’s not that all women are kind. I’m a human too, so how can I do that? It’s to be nice to someone you like.”

“..Whoa..”

That kind of attitude is rather problematic.

With such an innocent attitude, he throws stones as if nothing is wrong, but it feels so painful from this side.

I’d rather not know if it’s a person who expresses his heart openly, but since he approaches me with such an ambiguous attitude, I’m not sure, so it’s hard to deal with it properly.

What could be more embarrassing than that if I just resolutely threw it away and it was my misunderstanding.

-Sueug

“Aren’t you sick?”

“..It’s okay, don’t worry.”

“Fortunately, I don’t think my skills have rusted yet.”

I felt strange in his words as he started brushing again, scolding his pounding heart, whether he knew the master’s heart or not.

‘My skills are getting rusty…?’

That is something you should have at least some experience with.

I’m not talking about brushing your own hair.

“..I’m asking just in case you don’t know, are there any women you’re currently in a relationship with?”

It comes to the conclusion that he has combed other women’s hair.

I wouldn’t have combed a man’s hair while applying medicine.

“Ahaha, nothing like that. I’m talking about Master. He also has long hair like Sojeo.”

“..Ah. Was that what you were talking about?”

“Yes. At that time, oil was extracted from plants, but fortunately there was a similar drug on the market. Thanks to that, I lived.”

Come to think of it, he said he had been training in the mountains for 10 years.

He certainly wouldn’t have been alone.

“Then, are there any other women in the world? She heard that she had been living in Shaanxi for quite some time, but she must have had a relationship with a woman in the meantime.”

“Are you so curious about my relationship with a woman?”

“That’s you…!”

“Well, I don’t know why you’re curious, but if you’re curious, I’ll let you know. There isn’t.”

“…Really?”

“Well… There’s a woman who helped set up a fortune teller, but she’s just a close friend. Maybe she thinks of me that way too.”

-Sueug

“Hmm…”

It seems that the woman’s relationship is not complicated.

“Anyway, since I enjoy drinking and gambling at a bar every night, many people misunderstand me that way. I’m not particularly interested in coveting women.”

“…Ah.”

Forgot for a while

That he was betrayed by a woman he trusted in the past.

-Kwook

‘.. Did she try to harbor her feelings for a man like that?’

She is a woman who has suffered a great heartache.

Now, she will not open her heart to a woman.

‘Whoa…’

Her cold head calmed her beating heart.

“…I’m sorry.”

With this, she was able to calm her mind after being momentarily confused.

Both I and he have each other’s circumstances, so we shouldn’t make things difficult for each other.

So, clean up here.

“It’s not really something Sojeo should apologize for.”

“..Huh?”

“Do you apologize for what Sozer did wrong? She did it, not Sozer.”

“…”

He was a really caring man.

Still, thanks to her heart, she didn’t have to be shaken like before.

-Sueug

Right now, I am just trying to prepare for the future through my divination he has seen, not because he has special feelings.

If so, it’s just pure kindness.

‘Heh.’

So, I just leave it as a small connection in the world that has been around for a long time..

“Well, life is too short to enjoy, but it would be foolish to live with such scars for the rest of your life. People naturally learn from their scars. And that’s it.”

“…”

Leaving behind…

“Wounds from people are the way to heal from people.”

“…”

‘Uhhh…’

– Thump thump

Her heart, which had barely calmed down, began to beat more vigorously than before.

* * *

‘Oh, I forgot.’

I was also making excuses and forgetting.

It was set up that she was betrayed by a woman and she drank to forget the pain.

I suddenly apologized and did something, but when I thought about it, I remembered that I had made such an excuse, so I hurriedly said anything.

‘Did I just say that wounds heal?’

I was trying to reassure you that it’s okay because I thought it would be hard to follow if we had an awkward relationship, but thinking about it, it was a little dangerous.

After all, there’s no excuse to drink alcohol once you’ve really recovered.

‘Ah, let’s just say it hardened into a habit.’

I don’t know if awareness of alcoholism is widespread in this world, but how can I refute the fact that I can’t live without alcohol?

-Sueug

At some point, the brushing was over.

It’s definitely not ineffective, but it doesn’t seem to envy the high-quality silk that makes the hair more shiny.

‘It’s nice that you’re not blind.’

Master’s hair was golden, and he sometimes went blind in the sunlight.

Come to think of it, I thought it was just that at the time, but after coming out to the outside world, I realized that blonde hair is not common in midfield.

‘Are you a westerner? Or mixed blood?’

If you think about it, the odds are pretty high.

‘I don’t know.’

A person who doesn’t exist now anyway.

I will enjoy my life

“Okay, it’s over. Here’s the mirror.”

For some reason she handed the mirror to the woman who was putting her hand on the heart area.

The woman’s face turned red as she handed her a mirror.

“Are you uncomfortable? Her face is red.”

“No.. It’s okay.. Just a little further away..”

‘Where does it really hurt?’

Her face is all red

I don’t think I’ll catch a cold because I’m a peak master, but it might be a different kind of illness.

“You seem to be unwell, so I think you’d better rest in your room today.”

“It’s not really painful… I just had something to think about…”

“If you’re shy, you don’t have to. Everyone has a weak spot. I know that Sojeo is strong, right?”

“So because of you…!”

“Yes?”

“Oh, no. Never mind.”

It seems that it is true that something is going on.

“Then I’ll be in the next room, so if you need anything, please feel free to call me. Thanks to Master, I’m confident in helping people who are sick.”

‘Not moving a single limb is the same as being in pain.’

The moment she said that and was about to leave the room

“..For a moment.”

A woman called me

“Are you going to stay in the next room?”

“Yes? Yes. I see.”

“Didn’t you come to Hanam for a trip? He said he had a place he wanted to go to.”

“Well… That was the original plan, but… Sojeo looks sick, so how can he go out alone?”

‘I’m afraid to go alone.’

Hanam-do is a safe place, but if you want to be bored, the place where knife fighting takes place in the inn is Jungwon.

No matter where you go, you shouldn’t be vigilant.

Anyway, the promised time with the merchants isn’t tight, so it’s okay to blow it up for a day or so.

Instead, you can increase your favorability and ask them to go together in Anhui.

“..Where was the place you originally wanted to go to?”

“Ah.. If you go north from here, there is a lake, and they say that there are fish living there.

It is a traditional tourist destination that has been going on for decades.

Well, there are rumors that if you confess in front of a spiritual creature, love will come true, so it’s a place that couples often visit, but I’m not interested in that.

“..Go with me.”

“Yes? Are you okay?”

“I’m really fine, so don’t worry. I’m well aware of my condition.”

“Well… If you say that, I understand.”

For some reason, I felt heat in my eyes, but I thought it was because of my mood.
